People forgave, Sechin - no
The court announced the sentence to Alexei Ulyukaev, and he was not much more humane than the colony requested by the prosecutor.

Many such a cruel sentence did not expect: the most common forecast was a conditional term.
Today the verdict in the case of Ulyukaev will be announced. My forecast based on some inside is a conditional period (5-7 years) and (or) a large fine in the region of about 500 million - 1 billion. What do you think?

Yesterday, @ssmirnov said that there would be a long conditional term for Ulyukaev - 5 years, but not real. 8 years of the camp - amazing!

Among those who predicted the real term, there was an opinion that Putin may be directly interested in it:
When Putin returned from the G20 summit in Australia and it became clear that the country was in full isolation, he held a meeting with members of the government’s economic bloc. Tell us what your action plan is, ”said Putin. Ulyukaev answered, - Vladimir Vladimirovich, we thought that you had a plan.
For this trolling, Ulyukaev will receive a dozen today. Revenge, as you know, is a dish that is served cold ...
But most commentators believe that it was not the president to take revenge on Ulyukaev-although the judge was probably guided by a signal that Putin sent to the press conference yesterday, answering the question of Tatyana Felgenhauer, why Igor Sechin could ignore the summons of court.
The court sentenced Ulyukaev to 8 years in a maximum security colony. Sechin all in white opens champagne.

Eight years, the next day, after Putin’s press conference. And he could have come. Personal prisoner. Death sentence. Money was given by Valery Alexandrovich. Stalin Kirov killed in the corridor.
Those. Still, the main person in our country is not Putin, but Sechin
8 years Strogach - however, Igor Ivanovich Zelo Krut.
Eight years strict. Sechin showed that he was a scrap against which there is no reception.
Sechin, if necessary, will give Putin a strict

The court today did not resolve Ulyukaev’s guilt, but the issue of Sechin's status. And he decided that Sechin was all allowed.
I would advise all television channels to record videos with an apology to Igor Ivanovich Sechin. Well, just in case
The main lesson from the process over Ulyukaev, and better to say, from the court, will be issued by officials: from now on, everything must be done for the sake of Putin's friends and, if the interests of different friends contradict each other, in the interests of Sechin - he was a measure of truth.
If not, if you pursue selfish interests or, God forgive me, the interests of the Motherland, then it is likely to finish, like Ulyukaev - disgraced, humiliated and probably with an undermined health and a torn soul.
Serving the Motherland from now on Congruent to serve Sichin. And this is a disaster!
Ulyukaev has 8 years of strict regime.
On March 18, it is Sechin who will be chosen to us - this is the meaning of the “elections”.
Governors, officials - if the minister can be sent to the colony according to such “evidence”, then you are generally in the consumption.
What interesting are we waiting for us for 6 years: the struggle of corrupt officials with corruption for a decreasing feed base.
In the end there will be only one - and let it be Igor Ivanovich.
8 years of strict regime! Ulyukaev?! It is necessary to bring down from the country as quickly as possible ...
We have all the worst expectations always met. Others simply do not have to have
That is, either as Kerimov, or as Ulyukaev. Here you have the whole image of the future for six+ years of strict regime
Ulyukaev - 8 years. Sorry for the old man. He is already a pensioner, in the spring it will be 62. It will come out if they do not give an amnesty or parole, already 70 years old.
Ritual sacrifice
8 years strictly regime to Ulyukaev means that on parole he will be able to go out only after 4 years (3/4 of the term, the countdown from 11/14/16). This sentence is Sechin’s hardware victory over the status liberals, similar to the case of the Prompartia on June 1928, which, as we recall, became a Stalin victory over his recent allies of the Bukharin residents.
This is a symbolic political start of the Putin election campaign, which became an answer to the anti -corruption slogans of the liberal opposition.
And this is the return of the political boomerang, because it was 18 years ago that Ulyukaev publishes his “right turn”, which he proposed as an ideological manifest for early Putinism.
Eight years? If the constitution does not change and there will be no other changes, then Ulyukaev will come out under another president. But where then will there be a sausage?
Someone is ready to suggest that the "sausage" will be "another president":
In 2024, Sichin will be younger than Putin now #Sechin2024

Some commentators, as before, believe that the minister had to understand with which system he was dealing with.
Alexei - It's a pity .... But all the supporters of the theory of small affairs and wanting to cooperate with the regime is a clear warning about the rules of the game https://t.co/knzkiqfi6e

8 years strict.
In my life I had a chance to work next to many representatives of the authorities and on so many projects that did for state money. People were different - honest and not very, competent and not too much. The projects were different - useful and no, wildly overestimated and those where they had to pay extra from their own. But this is what I came across and encounter constantly-this is with a forced need for the design of parallel reality, when it is clear how God's day, that some fragment of what is completely insane, that there is a pure waste, the full inflation of the authorities in the interests of the initiators and beneficiaries of the scheme that will devour you if you get rid of what is happening is insane. And you pretend that everything goes as it should, and everything goes as it goes.
Until it ends eight years of strict regime. Which anyway will not receive beneficiaries, but you are for supporting this status quo.
Well, eight colonies of a maximum security colony for Ulyukaev is a decent time. But justice was triumphed only because he was allowed. #Ulyukaev #ulyukayev pic.twitter.com/va0t6dgqoj

However, most commentators are convinced that the fault of the former Minister of Economic Development was not proved, and the verdict pronounced to him is evidence of the triumph of lawlessness in Russia.
It is unpleasant that some in my Frend-Lent write about a difficult sentence to Ulyukaev: so he needed, there was nothing to “drink with thieves”.
It seems to me obvious that Alexei Ulyukaev got into prison, because he did not behave in hearthly at the process, but kept with dignity and defended himself. In particular - for the last speech. So that others are disgusting.
I wish this person firmness and courage. I hope he never regrets that he behaved in the process so, and not otherwise.
Timesline "Sworing of the Law"
Prosecutor General: “Practice, when people with special status can be easily arrested, wrong, there must be some restraining factors.”
Zamoskvoretsky Court: "To sentenced the former Minister of Economy Ulyukaev to eight years in a maximum security and 130 million fine."
Some are more equal.
8 years of strict regime to Ulyukaev. Took into custody in the courtroom.
I want to support Alexei Ulyukaev. Firstly, you can’t wish Russian prisons the enemy. Secondly, because everyone who wanted, saw both the process and the verdict.
The witness did not appear. He can do that.
In court, publicly, one sounded - the verdict came into a completely different one.
Not proven. We still do not know, it was not. But there is a deadline.
And if you think that this is done specifically for Sechin and Ulyukaev, then let you assure you - no.
This is such a court. Our Russian court. Country -forming factor. This is just a building and a building, on which a three -letter signs hang by a random coincidence. And this is by chance - letters C, U and D. could have others, the essence would remain the same.
Not proven. Publicly, in the presence of all of us - not proved. Spit in the eyes - God's dew. Therefore, if not proved, then Ulyukaev entered those 30 percent of the convicts who were sitting with us without guilt.
And I always said and will say: innocent - does not mean that you are pleasant to you. Innocent does not mean your views and your social group. The innocent does not mean that he loved cats and did not sin. Innocent - does not mean good. The innocent is simply innocent. And this is much more and more important.
The sentence to Ulyukaev is an occasion for elit to understand that an independent and fair court is needed not only in the opposition to ordinary people, but also by the elites themselves.
This, of course, is an extravaganza. We saw falsified processes, such as there is no crime event, where it is the fiction of the investigation. And where the judge repeats this fiction in a court decision. Yes.
And yet what happened today (if it is accurately transmitted in the presentation of the press) seems to be something completely out of the ordinary even against our trial. The judge repeats in the court decision as the established fact of the false statements of the witness, about which it is proved that they are false. The judge, as an established fact, repeats the testimony of Sechin that it was Ulyukaev asked for arrival in Rosneft, although it is known from these wiretaps that everything was the other way around. Sechin called him to Rosneft. These records were heard in court.
How can it be: the judge in a clear eye repeats in the court decision what everyone knows as a lie of one of the witnesses? It doesn’t matter how you feel about Ulyukaev, what you think about the process and this case. But this cannot be all the same!
Ulyukaev was sentenced to eight years in a maximum security colony and a fine of 130 million rubles.
This is called the sausage ...
I repeat, I feel sorry for Ulyukaev, this is time, for he became a victim of a provocation. In addition, this is a purely political matter, the purpose of which is not even a state corporation, but a close to the first person of the head of this state corporation, these are two. We can assume that Ulyukaev was wrong, but he considered the privatization of Rosneft from the point of view of the interests of the state. He believed that for privatization you can get more money and not to privatize the company. What was he wrong here?
There was no bribe. The evidence of the bribe is the words of Sechin, who did not come to court and whose testimony was therefore not announced, and the testimony of Feoktistov, who said that he worked against Ulyukaev on behalf of Sechin. Moreover, now Feoktistov is no longer working in Rosneft, nor in the FSB and all this is also connected with the Ulyukaev case.
Nevertheless, Putin yesterday a signal yes, the court received the signal. There is nothing surprising here, in Russia there is no judicial branch.
Ulyukaeva can be set next to Urlashov the same, that is, he is innocent, the sentence requires the revision and punishment of those who actually did not even provoke, but falsified the bribe.
8 years of a real colony of strict regime Ulyukaev - a gloomy illustration to the balance of the day and night method of the functioning of the state, which we recently discussed here (with Kostya Haaza). Yes, on his daytime, the accusation does not really put up in court, but on the night side they decided that he took and extorted, which means it should be punished, no matter what papers were covered. If the night solution is stronger than daytime opportunities, the worse for them: they will be toughly adjusted. The superiority of the night unofficial over daytime official means that the regime is stronger than the state, no matter how many functions are delegated by an updated bureaucracy. Namely, this decision shows that the regime is not only Putin for a long time.
If the word of 2017 is “fatigue”, then the word of 2018 is “resistance”. I will explain why.
Just Ulyukaev was given eight years of strict regime. What is it about? A millions of time about the fact that Russia is not right. Well, it does not exist without uniform norms for all (as well as without an independent court and investigation). It was clear to Ulyukaev, how to not treat him-and now he would just shine.
Every citizen of Russia can sit down or lose money with property without having to please the cop.
Living with this knowledge is difficult. Hence the complacency by parks, a startup environment, Big Data, a gastronomy, the Sleuvovo school and the University of Sberbank (there were places), public services, some kind of self-realization.
But at the same time everyone understands that they are tired precisely because the cop hangs over self-realization. Carefully hangs, does not shine. But this does not mean that he does not make plans for our children.
The children will say that every parent will say - they teach you not to twitch, demotiv, they are guessed, hidden on enemies, and prepare for negative selection. The schools who go against the school are barely fighting off. Strong teachers are expelled to rehearse on Skype.
Therefore, there is a feeling that the next step from “fatigue” -2017 is precisely to “resistance” -2018. Conscious, target. The boom of private construction of the lines of fortifications and parallel structures, a sophisticated war against the kingdom of crooked mirrors.
Resistance experience in Russia is bizarre. The last year I study it and amazed at how much the ability to live here is not only by the state, but by time. This is the second unique product that we supply to the world (the first, as you know, suffering) - however, about that a separate conversation.
In the meantime - like this, Happy New Year, with new dugouts and dugouts.
